Podcast: Brian Orser - The man behind the world’s greatest figure skaters

About this episode

We sent Olympic champion figure skater Meryl Davis to Vancouver to cover the Grand Prix Final for the Olympic Channel Podcast. And she bumped into a few old faces. Double Olympic silver medallist Brian Orser is coach to Yuzuru Hanyu, Javier Fernandez and Evgenia Medvedeva. Davis and Orser chatted about Hanyu’s ankle injury, Fernandez’s European Championships mission and what his opinion on Medvedeva’s inconsistent season. “I ask everyone for their patience. Please. It will be great. Really great. But there’s no quick fix.”
